Stall

Stalls are commonplace and torturous. Weight can't be lost like a lovely line chart with a constant, gentle downward slope. Instead it works like a flight of stairs, going down, leveling out, going down. It makes sense logically but mental it's awful. Stalls feel like personal failure and mine has come just before I read a milestone- getting below 200 pounds. Stalls in weight loss feel like a stall in life sometimes, like you're not moving forward. I can't wait for mine to end, even though it feels endless I have a sneaking suspicion that it will in fact end some day soon. 130 pounds seems so far away though and I am a far cry from an impressive "after" picture! I'm making some resolutions to help though- tracking food carefully, exercising more, and maybe imposing a certain time that I don't eat after. I need to keep chugging along! Wish me luck!
